Maybe it’s just my brain, but I can’t stand animated avatars. Is it overly grouchy of me to reflexively mute anyone that shows up in my timeline with lots of flashing going on? I literally can’t read when something on my screen is wiggling or flashing. Maybe it’s some sort of cognitive disability.
@Devils_Rancher It's not just you, and it's not rude. Our instance should have a rule against animated avatars, and you can totally ask our instance admin to delete those users.
@SteveJohnson That’s a bit harsh - it’s not an abuse issue on their part. I’m using Tootle which doesn’t have the disable animation feature that the web interface does, so that falls on me. I dislike using the browser on my phone though so I’m caught between.
